NekonyancerThis tutorial is [red]OUTDATED![/red]
I made a new one. To find it, just alter the numbers at the end of the link.
The link for this page ends in "tutorial=1090", right?
Change *1090* to *1594.*
Bye!

NekonyancerAs you can see, the game is played on a square grid, with stones laid out in an alternating pattern.
We're playing as *black,* and black always has to go first.2archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment000
NekonyancerFor our first turn, we must remove one of our stones from the board. We only have four options for this: [red]*the corners*[/red] and [blue]*the two in the middle.*[/blue]3archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment000knn_cell-0 6 knn_cell-27 7 knn_cell-36 7 knn_cell-63 6
NekonyancerTo remove a stone, all you have to do is click on it!
*Go ahead and click on this one!*4knn_cell-36010knn_cell-36 16
NekonyancerNext, our opponent must remove one of their own stones from an *adjacent* space.1archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment63532e690828e00
NekonyancerFrom now on, on our turn, we must use one stone to *jump over* an opponent's stone, *capturing it.* This can only be done if there's an empty space on the other side for our stone to land on.
Looks like we have three options this turn. BGA has helpfully highlighted those checkers for us.1archivecontrol_editmode_centercomment63532e72bad8700knn_cell-20 10 knn_cell-34 9 knn_cell-52 15
NekonyancerLet's try it!
*Select this stone!*2knn_cell-3463532e72bad8710knn_cell-34 16
Nekonyancer*Now select this space as the stone's destination!*1knn_cell-3663532e844c3b110knn_cell-36 16
Nekonyancer*Good!*
Hmm. Maybe that wasn't the best move though. You see, *double jumps* are possible in this game, and we've set up our opponent perfectly!
They can jump over one stone and then another, finally landing *[red]here![/red]*1knn_cell-3963532e852e2ba00knn_cell-35 1 knn_cell-37 14 knn_cell-39 14
NekonyancerBy the way, triple jumps - and even quadruple jumps - are possible in this game if you play on a larger board and all the pieces are set up just right.
But keep in mind that all these multiple jumps must be in *straight lines.*1maintitlebar_content63532e8a915af00
Nekonyancer*That's pretty much it!* The game will continue as you've seen, with players jumping over their opponent's stones, until one player is unable to make a move.
[green]When that happens, their opponent wins![/green]
Let's watch a few more moves though, just for fun.2maintitlebar_content63532e8a915af00
